Perhaps the Dandelion should have the earliest place; indeed, I once found it in Brookline on the seventh of April.
Hugo Munsterberg is a keen observer of the product of American schools, and contrasting their methods with those of his boyhood he says: "My school work was not adjusted to botany at nine years because I played with an herbarium, and at twelve to physics because I indulged in noises with home-made electric bells, and at fifteen to Arabic, an elective which I miss still in several high schools, even in Brookline and Roxbury.

"And you were in Boston?" "Yes, many times." "Did you ever go to any of the suburbs Brookline, for instance?" "I was there twice. We had friends living there. Isn't it a charming place?
